You want to defend that epithet based upon tradition and heritage? Using your reaction to a certain newspaper story where you claimed anti-Semitism and filed a lawsuit, I wager you would not hesitate to take corrective action if the team’s name were “The Washington Kikes.” There is a tradition and heritage behind that highly offensive taboo term for a Jew. This term, Kike, reminds some of whom they are and where they want to be. If you cannot do the correct thing because you are so fucking arrogant and an ass whole to the core, let me appeal to another part of your character. If you change the name you not only get instant collector items (all the old team merchandise), but there will be a frenzy for the new items. Guess what and here is the appeal to that other part of your character, you get to make more money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's not a Washington team.
Folks should feel free to root for Baltimore, or even Dallas.
Better yet, DC United.

After all, Oklahoma means Red Skinned People in the Choctaw language.

So... you can't name a team after the color of indigenous people's skin, but you can name a State after the color of indigenous people's skin?

WE ALL KNOW THAT HOWEVER THE WASHINGTON REDSKINS IS DC AND DC IS THE WASHINGTON REDSKINS AS HE STATED. SEPARATE THE TWO. RESIGN YOURSELF TO THE FACT THAT THE REDSKINS NAME IS ONLY WHAT IT IS A NAME AND NOT SOME NEGATIVE DEPICTION OF A PROUD PEOPLE.

A NAME CHANGE WILL AMOUNT ONLY TO A NAME CHANGE. IT WILL NOT AFFECT THE TERRIBLE ATROCITIES THAT PLAGUE THIS COUNTRY, THIS CITY AND THE NATIVE AMERICAN COMMUNITY.

IT'S TIME TO LEAVE OUR TEAM BE!
LET IT GO AND MOVE ON BESIDES IT'S DALLAS WEEK.
WE NEED TO FOCUS ALL OUR ENERGY ON THEM COWBAMMAS TO RIGHT OUR SHIP.

SKINS FAN FOR LIFE.
HTTR!

Wed, 09 Oct 2013 19:29:28 +0000http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/blogs/citydesk/?p=106049#comment-1121604I'm not a Dan Snyder fan by any means and would find it hard to justify maintaining a racist name in any circumstance. However, I'm just so tired of (usually) white sports writers and journalists expressing more outrage than a group of publicity seekers trying to draw attention to themselves. Why else does this issue only come up whenever the Redskins (yes, I said it) are competitive, which has not been often in the last twenty years. It would appear from many credible surveys that most Native Americans are not offended or don't care about the Washington Redskins (yes, I said it again) team name. If that is no longer the case then it's a different story but until then grow up and shove your "Pigskins" where the sun doesn't shine because I am done with your publication.
